Would an extension cable work for you?

My fault, I should have been more clear.

Yeah, I've mostly noticed the issue working on projects with people sharing builds.

I was at a conference on this type of topic. It was geared towards IT students and the presenter made everyone sign a waiver coming in and told everyone not to use their computer in that room. (Smartphones weren't super popular yet)

Anyone who jacked into the ethernet ports had their Facebook and Skype "hacked" and the presenter changed their picture to himself.

It was a wonderful experience seeing all the chaos that ensued. That kind of automated mitm attack won't work like that these days but maybe something to that tune.

Edit: plus it's a good lesson to read and comprehend what you're signing.

Let me explain, the current version of pop is based on the 22.04 branch of Ubuntu. They've been in dev hell trying to update to the 24.04 branch.

As a consequence it doesn't have full support of more modern hardware and you can run into libc issues trying to run precompiled binaries.

I've been using tumbleweed for awhile and I would be hesitant to suggest it to a new user unless they are comfortable with solving technical problems and learning how to take advantage of its recovery features. (Such as btrfs snapshots)

It's got some out of the box issues where you're expected to research and understand how to solve them. (Like many other distros) Where I've found Ubuntu just simply works or its just a few clicks away from working.

Things like the backlight on laptops not responding, codec support (needing to use packman repo), Nvidia support (has improved significantly over the years).

And with the nature of tumbleweed there's so many frequent updates, plus you're expected to understand how to resolve zypper package concerns.

Great OS, most issues I've had, have been solved. I am currently battling with it to properly support my 9070xt /w rocm. (Mostly working but unstable)

PopOS is very old I would recommend against it to anyone not already stuck with it.

Being LGBT in a country that's not cool with it could qualify you.

Try with the France embassy.

I've seen groups of people run up to the front and try to take selfies. People suck sometimes

Their chest spike is missing :o

The idiom "fleshed out" confuses foreigners and children.
